My Infertility Journey
Ana Mar铆a Roura and her husband, Sebastien, share their infertility journey, offering a vivid testimony of their experience with a condition that affects nearly one fifth of the global population.
麻豆社 Mundo journalist Ana Mar铆a Roura and her husband, Sebastien Jes煤s, share their personal journey of attempting to become parents.
After receiving a diagnosis of infertility, the couple turns to in vitro fertilisation (IV), the most common technique in assisted reproduction.
They recorded their treatments for more than three years and filmed a sort of diary that helps the audience understand the process from a scientific perspective but also dig in the psychological impact of the treatments.
Ana Mar铆a also shares her journey with other women going through the same experience. One of them is Laura, a very close friend who lives in Argentina, who achieved a successful pregnancy after eight years of fertility treatments.
Like Ana Mar铆a and Sebastien and other characters in this film, millions of people worldwide confront infertility, which the World Health Organization has described as a 'global fertility crisis'. Despite its widespread impact, infertility remains a taboo subject in many societies.
